B 747-400 Throttle Quadrant

Hi all!

Perhaps you know my HP, and found that I'm working on my genuine TQ.

Luckily my TQ includes the motor, gear box etc. for the autothrottle. The motor has 24 pins to connect. Now I'm looking for details like voltage, pinout etc. Here's a picture of the motor!

Anyone who can help?

As far as I know, Simulator Solutions are now working on a new SimStack board with interfacing capabilities to the ARINC 429 bus standard. Hopefully at the end I'm able to drive my thrust levers via PSX.

Thanks in advance and BR from Vienna!

Drop me a PM, for I have access to the entire 744 AMM - I'm sure Chapter 73 would help...

Hi Doug,

thanks a lot. But your profile wont give me a "send a message" but a "hidden" e-mail instead :(

Please use my profile or Hans [8)] B747-400 [D8)T] net to contact me ... many thanks!

That brought back a few memories. Those things are tricky to change.  Lots of nuts and bolts to drop into the cavity below the pedestal (above the A Zone cabin ceiling).  :?
